Moving on.
Okay, I'll do this while I'm in my manic stage! A lot lot lot has been going on. Most of it's in my head, but it still counts for something. I'm growing five inches each day due to pulls and tugs from all directions and my hands and feet are growing stronger due to constant motions and repeated rituals. The beauty hasnt been apparent to me until just this morning, after finally collecting a few hours of sleep. I counted sheep for the first time in my life. 74 is the last I remember. And then a quality drunken phone-call, some toss and turns, and then counting sheep for the second time in my life. 12 was the last I remember. Anyways, I woke up this morning feeling refreshed and not exhausted. Erin and I walked to get some breakfast, and when we came back, I told her how I've been. We talked about some good and bad memories as children, and since she only has 14 months on me, a lot of them were exactly the same.
I recently decided that it's time to let go of a lot of things. Inside and out. When I get home, I'm pulling out suitcases and burning piles of items that dont really mean anything to me anymore. I'm visiting graves and letting some emotions out. I'm telling my parents the alterations I've made in my life. I'm exposing future plans. I'm selling a good percentage of my CDs, clothes, and books* in order to fund specific trips and adventures. Well-needed, well-deserved trips and adventures. If all goes according to plan, I'll be doing the following when said funds are established:
Baltimore aquarium, college visit with Josh.
Philadelphia to visit Emily Beck.
New York to visit Matt.
New clothes, art shows and a website, new journal, new moleskine, sun on my skin. Fitter, happier, more productive. Right?
*Here's some of the stuffs I'm trying to get rid of for now. What I cant sell here will probably go to complete strangers. Since I'd rather these things have good homes, please ask about anything you're interested in.
